Rewriting My Fate in the Apocalypse

The wolf turned around and followed Leng Pan where she had dodged its attack then launched another one.

As she dodged the attack again, her Tang sword came down across the back of the wolf's neck and almost detached its head from the rest of the body.

Just like the first wolf, this one collapsed to the ground as well.

Lu Zhen was not to be outdone as well. His physical strength was higher than his wife so by the time Leng Pan put down the third wolf, Lu Zhen had already killed five.

His combat power was so high that it was astonishing. It looked like all that training didn't go to waste. Moreover, it seemed that advancing in superpowers had an effect in the improvement of physical strength as well.

Leng Pan could tell that after advancing to the third level the previous night, her husband's physical strength had also increased.

Seeing this, she also decided to work harder and advance.

Lu Zhen was swinging his miao saber from left to right and with every swing, a new wound appeared on the nearby wolves.

At least three quarters of the wolves had been either killed or injured and the wolf who had been standing at the back and howling seemed to realize this.

This pack of wolves had mutated and become bigger and stronger than regular wolves.

More than that, the wolf king's change was bigger than the rest because it had also awakened its intelligence albeit it being that of a five-year-old.

This meant that it could think and sense danger even better than before. At that moment, watching the two people fight and kill so many of its subordinates, it realized that things weren't going the way it had anticipated.

It had thought that since there were only two weak humans, it could use its pack to kill them and devour their bodies.

The wolf King could feel a certain power pulsing through both humans and it wanted to eat them and become stronger.

In fact, it was aware that if it managed to eat the two, it would advance by leaps and bounds not just in strength, but also its intelligence.

Consuming other powerful beings with extraordinary power could help in advancement like how crystal cores help humans.

Therefore, the wolf King had wanted to become stronger. Who would have thought that the two weak-looking humans were so powerful?

They didn't even blink or show even a hint of fear when faced with so many dangerous animals.

The wolf King felt a chill run down its spine. It had been too overconfident thinking that the humans were an easy target, but it had miscalculated.

Now, the only thing left was to leave with the remaining wolves. A park of a dozen wolves was now left with only three wolves.

It couldn't afford another death, thus it looked up again and howled. It was basically asking the remaining wolves to retreat.

As if they had been waiting for this order, the two remaining subordinates turned tail and ran back into the bushes disappearing into the forest beyond that.

The wolf King also turned around to leave but both Leng Pan and Lu Zhen appeared before it like magic.

Their swords pointed at it, Leng Pan spoke first, "Don't even think about leaving after provoking us. You caused me to fight those ferocious creatures and even got a few scratches.

I know you can understand what I am saying. Now you have two choices, one; we fight to the end and see who loses or two; become my husband's spiritual beast and companion.

Choose wisely. If you want to fight, that's okay, I will accompany you to the end. But keep in mind that there are two of us and only one of you.

We also have deadly weapons, so be careful how you choose.

If you choose to be my husband's spiritual beast, then you will enjoy the treatment of a family member.

You will be provided with food, shelter, and resources to improve your strength.

So, what are you going to choose?" Leng Pan was having a conversation with the wolf King as if it would reply to her.

Lu Zhen smiled upon hearing what his wife said. Having something as magical as a spiritual beast meant that one would have another helper and a layer of protection.

It is almost impossible for someone to come across something so good and give it away without a second thought.

However, his wife had done exactly that. She didn't even consider making the wolf her own spiritual beast but directly gave it to him.

He was over the moon by this show of love. And he loved it very much. He was not going to behave modestly and refuse. He would take whatever his wife gave him.

The wolf stood there like a statue as if it had heard what was said to it and was weighing its options. Of course, it didn't have many choices and honestly, there was only one choice to take.

After all,even though the wolf King was powerful, it could also tell that these two were even more powerful.

It could deduce from its animal instincts that they were way more powerful than what they had displayed and if it crossed the line, its ending wouldn't be good.

Moreover, it could also tell through instincts that the two were honest people and would not lie to it. Since the woman had promised resources that could make it stronger, then it saw no reason to turn down such an offer.

Even though it was an animal, it had some intelligence after awakening and could tell what was good for it.

Thus, the wolf King turned to Lu Zhen and laid down at his feet as if it was its sign of surrender.

It showed through actions that it had accepted Lu Zhen as its master.

Lu Zhen, upon seeing the wolf's actions, squatted down in front of it and touched its head.
